Looking around at the walls, the floors, the windows, the altar. The building as a whole inside and out. I see me here, I see us as a family here.
The back to school week is always a time of reflection for me. To enjoy the changes and updates, to be involved in the projects going on.
Today marks 15 years from the first day we walked through the doors at Silent River Kung Fu with our 2 year old in tow to start his very first class. It’s hard to believe that this much time has passed. Feels like a lifetime, but also like yesterday.
As parents on that first day, we walked in not really knowing what to expect and a little apprehensive of handing our child off to others. Before that very first class was over, we knew the right decision had been made. It took absolutely no time to immerse ourselves in this school and with the people within.
Fast forward to today, and I see ourselves in this building, in this community. Pieces of each of us from the years gone by. Silent River has become like a second home, even being a lifeline at times. And the people like family.
I look forward to what the future holds.
